About Said


Bio

I have several years of 1 on 1 and small group teaching experience through a variety of high school, college, and medical subjects. I received a perfect ACT score as well as 5's on multiple AP tests including AP US History, Human Geography, Macroeconomics, Seminar, Psychology, and several others.

I am a medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin, looking to increase my tutoring experience and help others get ahead with test prep.

I have several years of 1 on 1 and small group teaching experience through a variety of high school, college, and medical subjects. I received a perfect ACT score as well as 5's on multiple AP tests including AP US History, Human Geography, Macroeconomics, Seminar, Psychology, and several others. I have tutored dozens of students in ACT prep as well as AP subjects and I consider myself experienced with the best test-taking methods and strategies for the test. I scored a 521 on my MCAT, with a perfect score on the Psych section and near-perfect Biology and CARS scores, and have nearly 300 hours of experience with 1:1 MCAT tutoring. Recently, I have passed the USMLE STEP 1 and am focusing my educational experience on tutoring pre-meds and early medical students. I can provide both short-term goal support as well as longitudinal follow-up, and I am also happy to discuss medical school applications and pre-med experiences in general.

I emphasize working through practice questions and giving constant feedback. I can follow a student's progress closely and can answer general questions outside of sessions at any time as well. One service I offer that has been appreciated by my previous students has been forming study routines and schedules that ensure commitment and motivation, and along those I focus specifically on developing study skills and habits that are transferable across topics and beneficial to any student.

I have quite a flexible schedule and am available nearly every day of the week, later in the afternoon on weekdays. I would be happy to schedule initial sessions to help determine where you stand and how much further assistance or sessions you need to reach your best learning potential. Please feel free to contact me as I always respond within the day.

Reviews

Said really helped me get better at CARS

Said has been really helpful for improving my CARS. We do more than just go through passages, he shows me how to break them down by finding the main ideas and understanding what the author is actually saying instead of getting stuck in small details. What I like most is how we go through questions step by step and talk through why one answer is right and why the others are wrong. That has helped me start thinking the right way when I approach questions. I have definitely noticed improvement in how I read and understand passages, and I feel a lot more confident with CARS now. I would recommend him to anyone trying to improve.

Very Informative and Receptive

Said really helped me to make a plan and provided me with good Tips and Tricks regarding my study plan. He was really receptive to my ideas and provided feedback on how I could improve them. Overall, I would reccomend Said to anyone who needs guidance on how to begin studying or to come up with a different plan that yields the results you are looking for.

excellent strategist

I am very thankful for Said’s guidance. With his advice, I am clear on how to sufficiently review practice exams to my advantage and where to begin with content review.

AP Human Geography

Good afternoon. The first tutoring session was Excellent. Because we sent the information early in advance so he could prepare lesson before tutoring our daughter. Said work at a slow pace to make sure that our daughter would have a better understanding of the concept of the course. Laila went to class on Monday and another student created a game to review for the upcoming test. The teacher did different questions during the review and Laila felt confidence in answering the questions in class. The tutoring definitely help after returning back to school from winter break. We will definitely reach out to you again , once Laila starts Unit 3 of human geography.
